I like to share here a letter that someone wrote from a discussion
I was in on a “non-spank” tread on Amazon trying to ban me from the
tread. The pro-spanking people try to break me and they did everything possible
to trigger me to lose it emotionally, but once you truly have faced and felt
your repression you see through people’s games and is not possible to break you
anymore. It’s annoying and irritating, but they can’t break me anymore. Anyway
they went as far as writing to Alice Miller complaining to her, that I was
abusing her copyright and when I saw it on her website, I felt a fear of maybe
angering Alice Miller, but once I started reading her answer you can imagine my
relieve that Alice Miller stood by my side and was not annoyed that I wrote
things close to things she had written and I quote long texts of her.

Dear Ms. Miller,
On a "no-spank" thread on Amazon, one of your
readers has copied and pasted pages upon pages of your work. One of the copies
was of a webpage you allow people to copy and re-post in its entirety, but most
of the content seems to end with an "all rights reserved" copyright.
In some cases, the person is even copy/pasting the works of your fellow authors
and attributing your website, which might not exactly rub them the right way.
We've been concerned about her zeal for copy/paste of
copyrighted works for some time, but responsibility dictates that since the
poster has failed to see the legal and moral issues, we should at the very
least alert you of this.
Alice Miller’s
Response:
“Thank you for your letter and the link. I opened it and
found a discussion led very respectfully by Sylvie Shene who seems to
understand much about the dangers of spanking that produce beside other things
ignorant parents in future. Of course,
the Internet allows everybody to show themselves, their emotional insights as
well as their emotional blindness (like "I was very much beaten but I
turned out very well"). But I didn't find an example of anybody using
my name for a text that I have NOT written. Did I miss anything? If you did
find this kind of abuse, of disrespecting my copyright, please let me
know."
This letter is no longer available at Alice Miller's
website, I belief the coward that wrote it, asked her to remove it, because I
had copied and pasted it into the amazon.com thread with the following comment
and a link to it: To the person that wrote to Dr. Alice Miller, did her answer
put your concerns to rest? It's so funny
to witness to the extent the pro-spanking people go to, to stop me from sharing
the enlightened information here, they tried to break me, but that did not
work, because you cannot break what's not breakable anymore! Would not it be easier to put me in your
ignore list? What are you afraid of? Afraid your children might come here?
Become enlightened and be able to see through your lies and illusions. This
just shows how conniving some pro-spanking people are. The next morning I
clicked on the link from the amazon.com thread to see if it was working and the
letter was no longer available at her website. This person did not like Alice Miller's response and he/she asked her to remove it, because when people
clicked on the link could see for themselves their desperation. Later they
accused me of fabricating this letter myself!
All my life I have stood alone against the liars and cowards
in this world and it felt so good to have Alice Miller stand on my side, I
never had anyone before stand on my side like that, and I have no words to
express how happy I felt to know I was not alone anymore.
Alice Miller was the first person to stand on
my side.
